Abstract

Disclosed is a system or method for efficiently manufacturing construction materials using carbon nanomaterials. In one or more embodiments, the method comprises creating a blend of carbon nanomaterials, wherein the blend of the carbon nanomaterials includes at least one of a carbon nanofiber, a carbon nanotube, a graphite nanoparticle and an amorphous carbon. The method also includes dispersing the carbon nanomaterials and adding a plasticizer and a sand to the dispersed mixture within 3 minutes. The method also includes adding at least one of water and a cement binding agent to the dispersed mixture after the plasticizer and the sand have been added.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A composition to be used in manufacturing construction materials comprising:
 15-55% by mass percentage of a cement binding agent; 
 5-50% by mass percentage of sand; 
 0.05-1% by mass percentage of a plasticizer; 
 a 0.0125% to 1% by mass percentage blend of carbon nanomaterials, wherein the blend of the carbon nanomaterials includes carbon nanofibers, carbon nanotubes, graphite nanoparticles and amorphous carbon; and 
 a remaining mass percentage of water. 
 
     
     
       2. The composition of  claim 1 , wherein a mass percentage of the carbon nanofibers within the blend of carbon nanomaterials ranges from 20-40%. 
     
     
       3. The composition of  claim 1 , wherein a mass percentage of the carbon nanotubes within the blend of carbon nanomaterials ranges from 20-30%. 
     
     
       4. The composition of  claim 1 , wherein a mass percentage of the graphite nanoparticles within the blend of carbon nanomaterials ranges from 2-5%. 
     
     
       5. The composition of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the blend of carbon nanomaterials is stirred with the sand and the plasticizer for no more than 3 minutes to form a mixture. 
 
     
     
       6. The composition of  claim 5 , wherein the mixture is added to the cement binding no more than 2 minutes after formation thereof. 
     
     
       7. The composition of  claim 1 , wherein the blend of carbon nanomaterials is obtained through:
 detecting presence of an untreated gas mixture when the untreated gas mixture is fed in a quartz tube through a gas supply, 
 treating the untreated gas mixture with high-voltage discharge plasma in a zone between a cathode and an anode to create a treated gas mixture, 
 releasing the treated gas mixture in a deposition chamber through an opening of the anode, and 
 collecting a deposited carbon nanomaterial used in the blend of carbon nanomaterials automatically with a plurality of cleaner blades.
